INTRODUCTION

We will begin this study by defining the word 'holiness'. Holiness is defined as a state or condition
of being holy - to be holy is to be separated or set apart for a specific purpose or use by God.

Today we would be looking at holiness as regards our vision - Gathering the Lord's harvest. We will
be trusting the Holy Spirit to reveal to us the mind of God about holiness in the work that He has called us to
do. It is very important to note that God is Holy and He dwells in holiness(Isa 63:15), and so this study on
holiness is to be taken with all seriousness.

holy. We trust God to help us in this matter of holiness. Let us pray.
